Ok, plugging back all the devices - Gotek floppy emulator, CF card with IDE adapter. The ALE is dead again.
The ALE is present on the IDE interface, so unplugging the CF card in case it's somehow behaves bad - ALE is still bad. Unplugging the whole CF adapter - now it's alive again.Holy crap, "The Chinesium Strikes Back".
See the pin 28 where ALE is delivered with IDE cable. They've grounded it!
all according to ATA specification 😀
